New Program!
AMHA supports our Geldings
Historically there have been an average of 40 geldings that participate at each Regional Championship Show. This new program replaces the old Ultimate Gelding Awards, which had limited participation. Many more exhibitors and their Geldings will be able to participate in this new and improved program!

2) A nominated horse exhibited by a youth must be owned by that youth or an immediate family member as defined in YD-010 C pertaining to AMHYA titles and awards. All YOTE rules and restrictions apply to the YOTE gelding class.

Nominated Geldings may earn points in most classes. Look for the info on the Amha website for details. The points will be awarded according to where the nominated geldings place in their prospective classes. Points will be awarded for 1st thru 10th placings. 1st place getting 10 points, 2nd getting 9 points and so on. Should there be less than 10 entries, points will be awarded accordingly; for example: with 5 horses; 1st place gets 5, 2nd gets 4 and so on.
A gelding must be nominated by:
■ Completing a nomination form and giving the form and required nomination fee to show management “before” the horse goes into his first class.
■ All Geldings will receive a number out of a special series of numbers to make tracking them easier. For Example 900,901,902,903, etc.
